Hi,
I'm using player from the CVS and when I type
player player-CVS/gazebo/player/gazebo.cfg
I get the following error message:

BTW: I do not get this error using Player 2.0.2
Thanks

That's because, as the error message suggests, Player's configure
script was unable to find libltdl. This library is required for
Player to load shared libraries, including Gazebo and Stage plugins.
Install libltdl; it's usually packaged along with libtool. Then
configure, make, and install Player again. Pay attention to the
output of configure; near the bottom, before the list of drivers, it
tells you whether shared library support will be included in the build.
